how far from dundee?

by **slapshotDTSneil** on Wed Jan 23, 2008 3:40 pm

about 85 mile from dundee, hour and a half/3 quaters ish!

by **slapshotDTSneil** on Wed Jan 23, 2008 3:43 pm

there is a other road from stonehaven to the a96 near inverurie which cuts off aberdeen, missing the traffic but only saves you time at rush hours!

cheers mate . i will be up there around 12.00/12.30 . if anyones around
i dont mind a wee meet .

sorry stuart, only just caught this now. Would've been working anyway with no chance of being able to sneak away for a bit

That road you were on about is the Stonehaven => Netherly road, takes you onto the South Deeside road at Peterculter and from there the North Deeside road. Can save time if its quiet but because a lot of lorries use it and with it being single lane all the way you can find it taking longer. Grew up in Stonehaven so know it well enough.

I was trying to get the girlfriend along but she's working that day so i'll just have to get her along another time. I think i convinced her when i said she could maybe have a go cos there was a wee sparkle in her eye..........................Balls, what the hell have i said!!!

its ok mate . i got up to inverurie in and back to glasgow in 7 1/2 hours that included getting the bike on the trailer and a 10 min stop .
dont think i done to bad , considering the hail, snow , wind and rain .
im not joking , perth to dundee was the pits .both ways .

this is something i would be interested in trying, but what can a standard fronty lwb achieve with road tyres, mines a 2.8 with lsd on the rear, also i dont want to break my fronty, not because is valuable as its not its because its my only means of transport.

i dont want to get stuck every minute so what fun would i be having ?

by **stu** on Mon Jan 28, 2008 2:51 pm

you can have o lot of fun . you dont have to do the difficult parts of the
site if you dont want to . we have arranged a non damaging section
to test how well you know your 4x4 , in and out canes and the like .
maybe a few minutes on how to use your winch(if you have one)
safely . it will be a full day . i hope you will attend , if only to meet other foggers . im sure jools will add anything i have forgotten .

by **sare^baw's** on Mon Jan 28, 2008 4:41 pm

as my fronty is totally standard, is there anything i need to do in preperation for this ?

also i have no offroad driving skills nor used my 4wd so am i still gonna be able to get round the non-damaging course?

by **Red Oktober** on Mon Jan 28, 2008 4:43 pm

relax .......you'll be fine :lol:

by **stu** on Mon Jan 28, 2008 5:09 pm

dont worry , there will be plenty of advice jools knows what hes doing and im not bad either .there is a non damaging section ,you dont have
to do any thing you dont want to .

by **sare^baw's** on Mon Jan 28, 2008 5:12 pm

i am happy to do everything but i dont want to break my fronty lol

obviously as my fronty is standard i will be quite limited on what i can attempt :oops:
